I didn't downvote you but...

>iCloud is very inexpensive relatively speaking. And even the smallest plans have a very large amount of storage.

No, 50GB is not "very large". It's far smaller than iPhone storage, which means people filling up their phones (usually with photos) can't use this plan.

>You can get a storage plan for $1/month for 200GB and 2TB for $10.

No, the 200GB plan is $3/per month not $1.

Also, iCloud is lacking a lot of features that other could services have, such as file versioning or any kind of ransomware protection, block-level sync, cross platform sharing features, and many others.

iCloud also happens to be the only cloud service that ever managed to lose some of my data.

The only thing iCloud has going for it is privileged integration with Apple devices.
